Set a Default CVI Function parameter

[navarf01]

Hello,

I am wondering if there is a way to set some parameters of  a function as default. For example I am working on a project that will be using TestStand API so everytime I call a function in TestStand I will have to be filling the parameter with "ThisContext" so that I can use TestStand API functions in CVI. I would like to create functions that could auto fill this parameter with the a variable that I know that exist in teststand execution.

Thanks for your comments.

What about creating a copy of the step type and creating some code templates? You could also just make some step templates that you can drag in and modify.

Hope this helps!

If you are using the TestStand API you can use the pre-expressions of the step to run:

Step.TS.SData.Call.Parms[1].AsCommonCParameter.ValueExpr= Variable1

Where Parms[1] is the parameter index in the function prototype and Variable1 is a string.
